This knitting business has been occupying a fair bit of my creative space this week, test knitting for milo, churning out some little vests. I love this denim colour in the lusciously soft Pear Tree merino.
And there has been a little bit of sewing going on, I've raided this special pile of stash for our upcoming stocking, 'Local Love'. So far it's looking something like this, as I grab little snippets of stolen time in the sewing room, a couple of pockets here, some topstitching there, inseams here ..... you get the idea.
And this is what's next on my list. I scored this cute little book in an op shop. Lily has picked out plenty of things for me to make, mostly a wardrobe of clothing for her dolls. It has some great little patterns for some Steiner styled dolls. And when I've finished everything for the stocking, I'm allowed to start on the pattern which came from Kelani (see sidebar for link) It's sooooo cute, I've picked the fabrics and we're going for pinks and greens for Lily.
